iPad doesn’t add up

without comments

The much anticipated announcement of the iPad was a total failure if you ask me. Nothing about the “new” product is…..well, new. It just looks pretty and claims a somewhat low price. Everything else you can find on the iPhone or the iPod Touch. My opinion and prediction is that the iPad will flop. I don’t see how it could fit into my life and furthermore, I don’t even know what I would use it for. If anyone has a valid argument of why I should buy it please pitch!

The Failures:

1. Nothing innovative about it.
2. No multitask.
3. The name. iPad?
4. Hardly enough memory for music, pictures, and Ebooks. Not to mention games.
5. Boring UI.

The tablet I would buy is the Microsoft Courier. The problem is that I have lost faith that Microsoft had realized how innovative this product really was and decided not to make it. I could be wrong and I know this would blow the iPad out of the water, but so far no luck.

Check out the Courier in action.
